In-situ avloppsreningssystem verkar vara en lovande lösning till detta. För att dock säkerställa att dessa ej belastar den omgivande miljö och fungerar som det skall i förbehåll att dessa ständigt övervakas. Konstruerade våtmarker är en typ av in-situ vattenreningsteknik. Dessa system är lämpliga för småstäder, bergiga och tätortsområden. Dessa system är kostnadseffektiva och flexibla vad dess implementering och hantering anbelangar. Två dylika system är i fokus av denna studie, nämligen två konstruerade våtmarker i Sakib - Jerash i Jordanien och i synnerhet utforskas dess prestanda, social acceptans i och dessutom utfördes en nyttokostnadsanalys.

The rodent fauna of Jordan consists of 28 species with 20 genera in eight families (Cricetidae, Dipodidae, Gliridae, Hystricidae, Muridae, Myocastoridae, Sciuridae, and Spalacidae), including four introduced species. Keys for families and species were provided, along with diagnosis for each species and cranial illustrations for most species. Habitat preference and zoogeographic affinities of rodents in Jordan were analyzed, as well as their status and conservation. Threat categories and causes of threats on the rodents of Jordan were also analyzed. The distribution of rodents in Jordan represents a reflection of their global distribution ranges and habitat preferences. Species associated with the temperate forest of northern Jordan includes Sciurus anomalus and two wood mice, Apodemus mystacinus and A. flavicollis, while non-forested areas are represented by Nannospalax ehrenbergi and Microtus guentheri. Strict sand dwellers include Gerbillus cheesmani and G. gerbillus. Petrophiles associated with sandstone or black lava deserts are exemplified by Acomys russatus, A. r. lewsi, H. indica and S. calurus. Others including: Jaculus jaculus, G.

  • The Case for Regulatory Accommodation of Islamic Banking and Finance: Banking the Unbanked
    THE CASE FOR REGULATORY ACCOMMODATION OF ISLAMIC BANKING AND FINANCE: BANKING THE UNBANKED A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of The School of Continuing Studies And of The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Liberal Studies By Nida S. Davis, MBA Georgetown University Washington, D.C. April 1, 2018 Copyright © 2018 by Nida S. Davis All Rights Reserved ii THE CASE FOR REGULATORY ACCOMMODATION OF ISLAMIC BANKING AND FINANCE: BANKING THE UNBANKED Nida S. Davis, MBA DLS Chair: Ariel Glucklich, Ph.D. ABSTRACT Islamic Banking and Finance (IBF) is based on the ethical principles prescribed in the Quran and the teachings of Prophet Muhammad. After the fall of the Ottoman Empire and with the advent of Western colonialism, Islamic finance was replaced by the conventional banking system. IBF re-emerged in the early 1970s as one of the fastest growing financial sectors to meet the financial needs of the Islamic world. Despite the rapid growth of Islamic banking and finance, its expansion remains insignificantly small at only 2% of global banking assets.1 The majority of Muslims are unbanked because, among other reasons, conventional banking is not compatible with their Islamic principles. I examine eleven Islamic countries that have tailored their regulatory frameworks to accommodate IBF in order to assess whether such tailoring has led to increases in the financial inclusion 1 Lorraine Ocampos, "Can Islamic Banking Increase Financial Inclusion in the Muslim World?"

  • Conservation of Natural Ecosystems in Jordan
    Pak. J. Bot., 44: 95-99, Special Issue May 2012. CONSERVATION OF NATURAL ECOSYSTEMS IN JORDAN DAWUD AL-EISAWI Department of Biological Sciences, Faculty of Science, University of Jordan, Amman, 11942, Jordan Corresponding author’s e-mail: [email protected] Abstract This study reports different types of natural ecosystems in Jordan subjected to human interference. Mediterranean forest and shrub land ecosystems are severely affected by cutting and fragmentation into farm lands or housing areas, leading to a great loss in biodiversity, especially, rare species, and causing soil erosion and desertification. The second type of system is a unique desert oasis, which is undergoing change by pumping ground water for the past 20 years. It is causing dryness of such unique aquatic system and thus sequentially contributing to loss of precious ecosystem. The third ecosystem is a marginal land area, classified as steppe land belonging to the Irano-Turanian biogeographic vegetation region subject to cultivation under a little rain water. It caused destruction of vegetation, soil erosion and weed spreading. The fourth is a fresh water ecosystem also badly altered by mixing of sewage water effluent. It is causing disappearance of many edible and prominent aquatic plant species. Mitigation measures are needed to overcome these negative alterations. Introduction Natural forest types: According to the leading species of the forest type, the natural forests in Jordan are subdivided Jordan is a small country with a total area of about into following four main types (Al-Eisawi, 1966). 90,000 Km², yet it is highly diversified in terms of variation in biogeographic regions and richness in biological diversity Pine forest: This type of natural forest is restricted to the elements (Al-Eisawi, 1996, Al-Eisawi et al., 1998; Anon., northern parts of Jordan.

  • Emerging Trends in the Jordanian Host Community
    Journal of Sociology and Social Work December 2019, Vol. 7, No. 2, pp. 115-125 ISSN: 2333-5807 (Print), 2333-5815 (Online) Copyright © The Author(s). All Rights Reserved. Published by American Research Institute for Policy Development DOI: 10.15640/jssw.v7n2a12 URL: https://doi.org/10.15640/jssw.v7n2a12 Emerging trends in the Jordanian Host Community: Service Delivery Gaps, Ethnographic Shifts and Social Tension: a Field Study in the Governorates of Jerash and Ajloun Dr. Basem Al Atom1 Abstract This field research study examines the underlying causes of social tension between Syrian refugees and the Jordanian host community in Northern Jordan. It does so, moreover, within the framework of the current shift being undertaken by international and local non-governmental organizations from an emergency response to Syrian refugees to a development response. Specifically, such a shift brings with it an increased focus on livelihoods as a means of sustainable economic empowerment. With a focus on livelihoods, however, comes an increase in the potential for tension between employers and employees. Furthermore, this tension complements an already-existing tension that exists between landlords and tenants. Understanding the sources of these types of conflict will help mitigate against future tensions and better facilitate social cohesion amongst Syrian refugees and the Jordanian host community. Keywords: Syrian refugees, host communities, social cohesion, social tension, dispute resolution 1. Introduction This research study provides an overview and analysis of research undertaken between February 2018 and April 2018. The purpose of this report is to examine the underlying causes of social tension between Syrian refugees and the Jordanian host community in Northern Jordan, and to help mitigate against future tensions and better facilitate social cohesion between these two communities.
